Welcome to the Lost & Found archive, featuring photographs and reports from our evenings as well as information about the participating artists. The artists’ websites are published here so they can be contacted directly. All flyers have been photographed; their materiality is visible, with corners, folds, and relief retaining their tactile quality on screen.This site takes the form of a growth model and behaves as a work in its own right: it is always, and never, finished. The site functions as an archive and is not updated regularly; if you wish for a change or update, you may submit a request.

Since 1997, over 200 sessions of stray images and sound have been organised. Artists, writers, scientists and musicians present work in progress, experiment or present work that doesn't fit into their oeuvre (yet). A specific and unique stage for diverse and hybrid works which don't fit comfortably into galleries or museums.

  1. The Next Big Thing

    Frank investigated the ins and outs of the soaring art market and the consequences for artists, dealers, museums and for art history. Internet, the growing number of rich individuals and globalization have changed the art market beyond recognition. Has contemporary art become a commodity in the hands of the super rich private collectors? We see some clips of the rough edit. We see Jeff Koons at his opening at David Zwiner, we see gallerists and collectors and we see a young artist in his studio. The film will premiere at IDFA.
